Proverbs 22

v. 6 Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.

Father, I have been called to be a parent to my sons, and an example and mentor to so many children.  Give me the wisdom I need to start them off on the way they should go, and the patience and endurance I need to support them as they grow into adults.  And give me the heart of a child, to love to spend time in your presence and to sit at your feet.  I need you.  Amen.

Proverbs 21

v. 3 To do what is right and just is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.

Lord Jesus, give me a heart that hungers for righteousness and holiness.  Grant me the courage to seek you and obey you in all I do.  Amen.
